Beat Slow

[Hook]
Been up so long, trying to find the time to sleep
And I shout so raw, trying to find the time to breathe
And every time I find a beat, I tell my heart
Beat slow
Beat slow
You've gotta sleep though
So breathe slow

[Verse]
My life's long evenings pacing
Nights out, days in
Writer's block bringing peace and patience
Face vacant, brain racing
Scheming to be the next teen sensation
You wanna be a sensation?
You're chasing all that fame and...
Nah, cause I see the world changing
Like 'sorry Mr Robinson your place is taken'
Cause they can stamp on my hands on the way up
While I plan, finding fans when I stay up
But they'll never break the spirit that I came with
Every day I trained; I played; I made this
I made this
So don't you tell me how weak my game is
Whether I have any hope of getting famous
I want to bring positive changes, take this:
Cause I don't need it
A melodic addiction needs feeding
The rap scene I eat, sleep and breathe it
I dare you, cut me deep and I'll bleed it

I'm tryn'a meditate
In a steady way
Making space, tryn'a stop my brain playing games
Is it safe to rage with pain, stay insane
Or cash it in so I can save it for a rainy day?

Cause I love my life and I'm forever grateful
But seeing others suffer is forever painful
I wanna save the day, make a major change
So I say it to my face: Slow down, slow down, zone out

I wanna save the day, make a major change
So I say it to my face: Slow down, slow down, zone out

[Hook]
Been up so long, trying to find the time to sleep
And I shout so raw, trying to find the time to breathe
And every time I find a beat, I tell my heart
Beat slow
Beat slow
You've gotta sleep though
So breathe slow
